Présentation de l'éditeur

This is a handbook compiled from contemporary sources. The articles for reprint and, with few exceptions, the references, do not date back of 1920 and 1921. It is entirely a book of post-war discussion. In some features it departs from the usual plan of this series and is not arranged as a debate. In the first place it seemed impossible to arrange a systematic debate if all the diverse points of view among advocates of disarmament were to be represented. In the second place there is comparatively little active opposition. There is, on the other hand, a counter propaganda, for a strong army, a big navy, and for aerial and chemical armament. In place of the usual division into Affirmative and Negative, the book, following the General Discussion, has accordingly been divided into two parts, with the headings: For Disarmament; and For Continued A rmaments. The bulk of material is much greater on the side for Disarmament. The Big Army and Navy advocates are not doing so much talking now. They talked in the Preparedness campaign before 1916 when the navy building program was adopted and are now harvesting the fruits in the naval appropriation bill. Under the heading General Discussion are presented: a summary of Congressional action, statistical material bearing on the size of armies and navies and the cost of war, some intimation of what war will be like in the future, and a group of articles discussing the underlying economic factors. The student is referred to other books in the series closely related to this: Reely: World Peace, 2d cd. 1916 (now out of print); Bacon: National Defense, vi, 1915 (now out of print) ;V an Valkenburg: National Defense, v2, 1919; Johnsen: National Defense, v3, 1921; Parsons: Non-R esistance, 1916; Phelps: The League of Nations, 4th ed. 1919.
